It's time to order mange meds again! We have mailed out over 230 mange packets since I thought to start keeping track, lol. That's an amazing number of foxes helped in the most unstressful way ❤️
*Pictured is one of our most recent requests, whose packet is being mailed out today!

Mange in red foxes continues to be an issue all over South Carolina. This used to be something we (Izzie's Pond) saw mainly in late Spring and early Summer when foxes mated and raised their families. Now, there has been no let up and we're getting mange calls all year long. This picture is just one of the many recent cases.
We know there's a direct correlation with mange and the use of rodenticides. There's a great page you can follow with more information Raptors Are The Solution (RATS) which outlines the dangers of poisons in the environment and the benefit of letting mother nature balance the food chain with the predators that were made for that job. The development and new construction going on around us just increases the use of poisons, but there are much better (less dangerous) ways to deal with unwanted rodents.
We have a program that we will send (OTC) medicine and instructions to people that wish to help foxes on their own property. Foxes are notoriously hard to trap and we've found to have a much higher success rate by treating them where they are, in their home environment. Each packet that we send out costs us approximately $25. This covers meds, syringes & caps, printed instructions, shipping supplies and cost of shipping. We do not charge for the packets, and we've always had the luck that some people donate enough to cover a few other packets, too.
If you can send $5, and share with a friend, I know we can replenish our supplies without taking funds from other areas of the rescue. We appreciate you all so much, for everything that you do to help, from donating to sharing and spreading information. THANK YOU ❤️🦊❤️
